The hotel was well maintained overall. I was pleased that the front desk attendant permitted me in my room well before the usual check-in time. The breakfast was good. The only negative was the coffee maker in the room. Only decaffeinated coffee was offered. Also, the coffee maker didn't work, or I couldn't get it to work.

The room was much larger than expected which was a nice surprise! It also included a kitchen which was not included in the room photos. I do suggest room photos need to be updated on the site, the surprise was nice but I would love to know what I’m booking before I book it. The woman at the front desk who checked us in was phenomenal, I wish I would have caught her name. She was super helpful. Provided us with a list of nearby dining options and also supplied us with plates for our dinner that we had ordered. She was always eager to help.
